Publicado em 8 de mar de 2012

Ani
Choying Drolma (born June 4, 1971, in Kathmandu, Nepal), also known as
Choying Drolma and Ani Choying (Ani, "nun", is an honorific), is a
Buddhist nun and musician from the Nagi Gompa nunnery in Nepal. She is
known in Nepal and throughout the world for bringing many Tibetan
Buddhist chants and feast songs to mainstream audiences.

If humans and gods recite and hold the phrases of the Great Compassion Mantra, then
when they approach the end of life, all the Buddhas of the ten
directions will come to take them by the hand to rebirth in whatever
Buddha land they wish, according to their desire.

People and gods who
recite and hold the Great Compassion Mantra will obtain fifteen kinds
of good birth and will not suffer fifteen kinds of bad death. Those who
recite and hold the spiritual Mantra of Great Compassion will not suffer
any of these fifteen kinds of bad death and will obtain the following
fifteen kinds of good birth:

1. Their place of birth will always have a good king2. They will always be born in a good country3. They will always be born at a good time4. They will always meet good friends5.

They will obtain everything they seek13. Dragons, gods, and good spirits will always protect them14. In the place where they are born they will see the Buddha and hear the Dharma15. They will awaken to the profound meaning of that Proper Dharma which they hear.
